2014 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · DV64 OEM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on April 23, 2026 at 78,703 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a volatile pattern of reactive rather proactive care. A failure just two weeks prior at 78,671 miles revealed several critical safety defects, including a leaking nearside front hydraulic brake caliper and multiple missing wheel fixings across all four corners. While these issues were evidently rectified, the frequency of major failures suggests the owner only addresses mechanical faults when compelled by the MOT tester rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. At 12 years old, the recorded 78,703 miles represent an average usage of approximately 6,560 miles per year, which is consistent with low national averages. There is a significant gap in records between February 2024 and April 2026, where the vehicle covered only 2,466 miles over two years. This low rate of use often leads to age-related degradation such as the drying of rubber seals and hoses, which is evidenced by the brake caliper leak and perished suspension components noted in the 2026 test. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system. The history shows recurring issues with anti-roll bar linkage joints, track rod ends, and brake calipers, indicating the front-end geometry is prone to wear. The 2023 failure regarding a snapped mounting bracket for rear brake hoses and pipes requires a close look at the axle for structural corrosion or poor past repairs. Given the previous report of missing wheel fixings, it is essential to verify that all bolts are currently torqued to specification and that the hubs are not signs of loosening.
